St. MarY's Entertainment.

The seating capacity Of St. Nary's Hall
was tested last night. as one of the largest
audiences ever assembled in our CITY gath
cred there 10 witness the entertainment
given by the pupils of st. Mary's paro-
chial school. The curtain rose upon a
pretty scene which represented a score of
happy children. their sweet faces as fresh
as a summer morn. gathered about grand
ma, premature aged little body person
ated by little Miss Aadolin Paget The
children s sweet voices rang ont harmon
ious and clear in the operetta Grandma s
Birthday, and the gestures introduced
throughout were easy, natural and grace
full. The browning of grandma was par
ticularly pretty, and the solo I'm tired
now by little Miss jacobson is especial
ly worthy Of mention. A much appre-
ciated feature Of the program was the
fencing between Masters Reitz and Hill
TIVE young professionals of diminitive
stature and tender years. Both young
gentlemen displayed good training in the
art Of fencing and the movements of each
were particularly fine. The comedy "A
Sea of Troubles was very ludierous, in
which Aunt Jemima (persenated by Miss
Agnes Brady objected seriously to the
rendition of that portion of Hamlet's So
liloquy where we are told TO take arms
against n sea of troubles" Miss Jemima
persisted that it should be oars, and the
result was general confusion. In the
comedy "a Precious Pickle" Miss Nor
ton, the colored help, was very good, as
was also little Miss Lulu Quinn who as
sumed the character of Sissy Cable. +"
The program closed with a comedy in
two acts entitled the Enchanted Violin"
in which the cast consisted exclusively of
male characters. leo, +" the servant of Tia
morante, was personated by Master ohm
Murphy, who acted in a manner that
would have done credit to a professional
and whose elocution was faultless. Master
John Levi, The wizard dwarf, was also
good and Masters George Thompson and
Engleke are worry of mention, the former
assuming the character Of the Jew miser,
was true to nature. Master Frank Jack
son made distinguished Judge and acted
his part eredibly. The entertainment was
a success, and reflects credit on those in
charge of the school, who have so well
trained the children.

Capricious April.

This is the uncertain month-the very
coquette of the twelve sisters, smiles and
frowns. laughter and tears, by turns. Her
brightness is as dangerous as her darkness
perhaps it is more dangerous than the
latter, because it is more deceptive In
April keep your fires going. and, when
the sun shines open your windows. if you
are not sitting in the room. Beware of
getting particularly of wet feet. If
caught in the rain, dry your clothes on
you before fire so hot as to keep you in
a perspiration all the time. Then cool off
by degrees You had best change your
shoes and stockings while you are drying,
but keep your feet always close to the fire,
so that they may not become chilled, and
warm them thoroughly after the fresh
shoes and stockings are put on.
Eat lightly. and principally of fresh
spring vegetables; but eschew any that
are brought from a great distance, and are
bruised or wilted. Don't leave of light
street wraps because you are in a hurry,
or it seems a little too warm for them;
and don't stand on doorsteps without some
covering for the head.

ArbOr Day.

The governors of the various States in
the North and West are issuing proclama-
tions for Arbor Day. Governor Lloyd has
received the proclamation for the States
of Michigan and Nebraska from the gov
errors of those respective States. The day
will be observed as a general holiday and
will occur on April 25th and 22nd respec-
lively. We quote the following from the
Nebraska proclamation Let soldiers
plant trees at the graves of deceased com
rades, and let cemeteries be ornamented
with trees. Let all lawns and grounds
surrounding dwellings be beautiied with
trees" We should like to see the same
spirit permeating the minds and hearts of
the people of this State.

The FreelDelivery in Annapolis.

Major Bates. superintendent of the free
delivery division, Postoffice Department
Washington, says the postoflice inspector
who has the Annapolis matter in hand
will probably make another visit to this
city before submitting his report as to
whether or not free delivery service shall
be established here He says Annapolis
may not receive the benefits of free deliv-
cry for some time to come, for, although
she possesses nearly all the qualifications
necessary, she is apt to fail in the most
important particular-the receipts. In off
years, when tue Legislature is not in ses-
sion the postal revenues run way down be-
low $40, 900, and if free delivery is denied
it will be on account of the smallness of
the receipts at this time.

Freq Trade

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers. as well
as relieving the burden of home manu-
features. Especially is this the case with
Green's august Fg0aoer aud BoSchee's Ger
man Syrup, as the reduction of thirty six
cents per dozen, has been added to in
crease the size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the rs cent size. The
august Flawer for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicines in the
world The advantage of increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted. in every town

.BlrhLp IN AOLrhA Iron.
Spectators Admiring the SeetbiBg
CaldrOn Of Liquid Metal Barely
Escape an Awful Death.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 16.-A hor-
rible accident occurred this morn
ing at the Union Steel works, at the
corner of Ashland and Archer
avenues, by which three men are
likely to die. The men we're en-
gagged in pouring hot iron into q
mould that was damp when the
metal flew and scared them dread
fully: They were taken to the county
hospital and the physicians declare
their recovery is out OF the question.
Two OF the injured are Poles and the
third Hungarian.
The particulars Of the accident are
as follows: A large casting was to
be made, and the preparations had
been completed by q night shift of
men. The ladle by which the mol
ten metal was to be carried from the
mouth of the blast furnace to the
mold, had been freshly plastered BY
one OF the night men, without any
adequate idea of the early hour Ut
which operations were to commence
this morning. At $50 o'clock this
morning the plug was picked out OF
the furnace spout, and q lava like
rush OF white hot metal took place.
1t was q large melt for q big casting,
and beside the men who had bust.
ness around that seething caldron,
others were grouped admirine the
scintillation of sparks that few from
the bubbling stream. All at once
there was an upheaval in the l.dle.
An explosion had taken place in the
lower part OF its capacious interior.
la moment the hot metal was
spreading itself over the heads and
faces and bodies Of onlookers and
workers alike.
The water in the fresh plaster had
generated steam and q miniature
boiler explosion with maximum re.
suits had taken place. The thick
paving OF coal dust and molding sand
on the floor was forced into the air,
and gave the outside world the i'm
preston OF great fire. But there
was no fire, and hardly any damage
to the building to speak Of. But q
dozen men lay groauing in agony
when the binding cloud had sub.
81 led. The police aud unipjured
men formed q rescuiDg party and
quickly three OF the worst hurt were
on their way to the county hospital.
